Meet Joe Newman

Owner & Stonemason | Mountaintop Masonry

My name is Joe, and I’m the proud owner of Mountaintop Masonry, based right here on Tamborine Mountain. With over 20 years of experience in stonemasonry, bricklaying, and block work, I bring a deep respect for craftsmanship and a commitment to doing the job right — every time.

Originally from Wales, I was trained in the traditional ways of masonry, where patience, precision, and pride in your work are non-negotiable. After moving to Australia, I fell in love with Tamborine Mountain — its natural beauty, its strong sense of community, and the way it inspires quality in everything we create.

If you're looking for a reliable local stonemason who takes pride in every detail and genuinely loves what he does, I’d be honoured to help bring your project to life.
